“…Soil P improves nodulation by facilitating early root formation and increases active nodules that in turn may generally increase productivity, and seed weight and yield [33]. However, contrary to Ribeiro et al [34] who reported higher yield in common bean genotypes with high seed phosphorous content, we did not observe any relationship between genotype seed P and seed yield. Contrary to Mourice and Tryphone [31], who attributed high yield to large seeded varieties, the smallest sized variety, Eclipse, had the highest seed yield in our study.…”

“…However, mean values obtained for the five superior lines selected in each population were similar to the recombinants selected in the F 2 generation by Ribeiro et al (2011) for high phosphorus concentration in common bean grains. Since phosphorus is important in bone and teeth mineralization, and participates in energy metabolism (Oliveira, 2007), the use of common bean inbred lines with biofortified grains for phosphorus could be important to prevent symptoms as painful bones, irregular breathing, fatigue, anxiety, numbness and skin sensitivity (Martínez-Ballesta et al, 2010).…”

“…It also has a high phosphorus content in which a high genetic variation has been observed. Thus, it has been reported that common bean seeds pertaining to the Mesoamerican gene pool normally show a higher phosphorus content than the seeds from Andine gene pools [9].…”

“…Furthermore, the common bean grain is formed by the seed coat (which represents approximately 9% of the total dry matter contained in the seed), the cotyledon (which represents approximately 90% of total dry matter), and the embryonic axis, (which only represents 1% of total dry matter). More than 80% of calcium and only 1.9–3.6% of phosphorus is found in the seed coat [9]. The bean color has also been directly related with bioactive compounds, such as condensed tannins, which are found in higher concentrations in beans having a pink seed coat as compared to those having a yellow seed coat [10].…”
